Antique Lifesize Crowned Mother Mary and Child Jesus Gothic Revival Sculpture

About the Item

Hand carved wood antique statue of Mother Mary wearing a Gothic crown. This original and all hand carved sculpture of the mother of all mothers is another one of our very special offerings on 1stdibs this week. The perfect posture of Mary and her child Jesus, but also the divine serenity in her face reveil the top quality workmanship of the sculptor who created this antique. The crowned Virgin here is holding a scepter in her one hand and this is symbolic of her roll as the queen of the heavens. The Child Jesus with the globe on His lap represents God as the ruler of all creations. There obviously is much more meaning to this stunning antique sculpture than that, but we lack the knowledge and vocabulary to describe that well. What we do know is that this unique and life-size sculpture again deserves to be in a house of worship and we think it is just a matter of time before she again will. We expect this work of religious art to be gracing the interior of a church or monastery somewhere on our beautiful planet soon. So if you appreciate the excellent quality and striking presence of this rare Gothic antique as much as we do then you will love our price. Especially when taken into account that our fair price also includes perfect packing and worldwide delivery from our store to your door in just 4 days. Maximum height x width x depth 65.5 x 21 x 20 inches. We have a passion for the unique, for quality, for stylish and meaningful and for craftsmanship of years gone by. Your purchases will be extremely well packaged and we look forward to serving you (again). You can shop all our 1000+ listings by pushing the button that reads 'View All From Seller'.

  • Antique Hand Carved Large Size Statue of Saint Joseph and Child Jesus Sculpture
    Located in Lisse, NL
    Large and high quality carved antique sculpture of Joseph holding the child Jesus. If you are looking for a great value for money, work of religious art then this quality carved church relic could be gracing your home or monastery or house of prayer soon. This may not have been carved out of the most expensive or hard woodtype, but that is not what this antique is about. This striking and meaningful sculpture is all about the natural manner in which both the little boy Jesus and Saint Joseph have been hand-carved out of wood and how an accomplished sculptor clearly has spent a whole lot of time, focus and dedication to get the details of this large and meaningful sculpture very right. In this case, the hands and feet, the curly hair, the serene facial expressions, the perfectly natural body postures AND the perfect draping of the cloths are the most eye-catching details. Ones that most mortals would never be able to create like this and it will have taken this skilled artisan weeks rather than days to create. We believe that this unique antique is made of basswood or pine and it has been hand patinated (original). This was probably done to make the entire sculpure look more warm and calm (no wood grains taking away anything from the beautiful details we described). This meaningful and quality crafted work of religious art is ready for you to enjoy and, to us, it breathes a holy serenity and beauty that will never fail to impress. No matter where you decide to have it on display, this ecclesiastical antique will never fail to impress and if you already have a place in mind for 'them' then maybe you should be their next custodian. Mind you, our price for this hand carved antique church statue...
